Scale of Ply

In collaboration with Oikos Furniture.

This remodel and extension of a Victorian
house in Dublin 4 uses plywood as a primary and secondary structural material
to replace an aged conservatory that acted as the main light source for the
ground floor. The prefabricated plywood structure allows for a series of
interconnecting triangular plains positioned to allow light deep into the plan
as the sun moves through the day. The return of the house is supported on a
glulam beam which in turn frames the diagrid structure as the kitchen ceiling.
